Original 1941 was a big year for Mercury, In 1941 Mercury Eight got all-new styling and some engineering improvements. Mercury's wheelbase was expanded by 2.0 inches.

The factory records go all the way to new, when a Miss C Hartley purchased it, and by the early 1980's it was on record as being in the USA under the ownership of a Mr. Bellman. It retains it's original engine, B9WP, and it's original H.J. Mulliner landaulette coachwork . It was Delivered from H.J. Mulliner in December of 1938, and is therefore titled as a 1939 automobile. . Once you have driven a nicely restored and properly sorted example of the Rolls-Royce, you realize why they have such a following. They were magnificent when they were new, and are still magnificent today. The book, "The Rolls-Royce Wraith" by Tom C. Clarke, gives a wonderful account of the development of the Wraith, and the great pains that Rolls Royce took to ensure that the production car was sorted out in every conceivable way, with ...

1934 Ford 2 door sedan with 4 inch chop, filled roof, 454 GM crate motor, new frame, new paint. New Aluminum radiator. The gentleman building this car passed away before he could complete it. No expense was spared. I am not sure how engine is built but it is way over stock it has a pretty healthy cam. The heads are aluminum with the # 3919842 in the casting, these are 68-69 vintage and very sought after bringing about $4000 a set. The builder had well over $50,000 in the car and it shows. The only thing left to do to the car is to put in interior , hook up auto choke on carb and hook up shift linkage. The car starts and drives as it is. The body is the best body I have ever seen, It has no patch panels anywhere I can find. It must have been a very good barn find. The frame is an aftermarket frame maybe TCI but I am not sure, it is very well built and all powder coated. Many of the parts on front and rear end are stainless steel or chrome. It has a Mustang 2 front and Ford 9 inch rear. ...
